    Awesome/ossum downgraded

    Due to current misuse and overuse, the A word has been downgraded. It now sits somewhere in-between 'meh' and 'whatever'.

    The other "A" word, AMAZING, has also been downgraded to meaning 'quite good'.

    In a similar way, 100% is no longer good enough as a benchmark for sportsmen.
